Poor, poor Wayne.

3-3 at Goodison Park. What a great result for the Toffeemen.

Well 1-1 draw at Wigan today, haven't seen the game yet but not a bad result especially being down to 10 men for 70 minutes. Second time Cattermole has cost us 2 points with a red card this year. Nice to see Gyan get off to a good start though. Oh and newcastle lost 0-2 at home to Blackpool hahahah

Oh Turd Fergie. What an ass.

Ref does Fergie a favour with 3 minutes of stoppage time and Fergie is flapping his arms like a buffoon on the sidelines begging him to stop the game after 2. If United were behind by 1 he'd demand 6 minutes.

Typical Ferguson. Typical United attitude.

Its not Premier league but this Burnley vs Preston Championship match on Setanta is hilarious. Burnley down 3-1 at home and within the last oh maybe 6 mins they are now winning it 4-3. LOL

Preston's coach is Darren Ferguson, son of Alex

not a good day for those 2 blowing 2 goal leads late

Great comeback by Everton to earn a tie vs Man U....2 goals in extra time!

The FA has charged Everton boss David Moyes and assistant Steve Round with improper conduct after Everton's 3-3 draw against Manchester United at Goodison Park.


Moyes and Round confronted referee Martin Atkinson at the end of the game after he had blown the final whistle while Everton broke away on the counter-attack. Everton had scored twice in injury time to rescue the point.

Hilarious. Reverse the roles and say it was Fergie and nothing comes of it. What a double standard you have there. Hell, Fergie's done much worse and nothing's come of it.

In my book though, as much as I despise Everton, Moyes is right, the referee could not blow the whistle there. The ref never blows the whistle during a play, you wait until the play goes through its natural course adn then blow the whistle after the resulting goal kick or clearance or whatever.

I think the FA wants to reinforce to Mr. Moyes that's he was than lucky enough to have gotten two goals in injury time and if he thinks he was nicking all three points from a sky 4 team he's out of his mind.

Avram Grant is going to miss the match on Saturday as he is observing Yom Kippur, I guess he forgets about his Judaism when he heads to the brothels

Darren Bent!

[chris_yk]

Darren Bent scores in the 95th minute to give us a 1-1 draw against Arsenal, their goal was off a ######ed play by Ferdinand, Rosicky missed a penalty and Arsenal were down to 10 men for 30-odd minutes.. who cares we got a point!

Another wonderful loss for Everton.

Fair play to Sunderland, I admire how they came out and took the play to Arsenal; they dominated the Gunnars in the first 45. To be honest, Arsenal took out of this game exactly what they put in. Hopefully it's just a one-off and the lads really have turned a corner this season.

Week game all around from the gunners,no escuses but Cesc left with an injury and the second yellow was week. Too many injuries for us right now. Need to find a way to win though

Isn't that the excuse every year?

ya and its bound to happen when a team relies on Van Persie up front, who has missed 10-20 games every year he has been at Arsenal

every team has injuries but no one complains about it as much as Wenger

the only team that has really been fit this year has been Chelsea

It's weird, I thought we played a lot better when Arsenal were still on 11 men too.. wish we would have gone 4-4-2 to begin with too but what can ya do.. Arsenal's injuries are a pain in the ass, and Arshavin's gotta finish chances like the one in the 47th minute.. oh and what's Everton's problem that they lose at home to newcastle??

Wish the Man Ure Liverpool game wasn't at 6 this morning, should be a gooder, god knows I was loving the 10:30 start for the Sunderland game yesterday!

[Pagal4321]

I honestly don't think we can use injuries as an excuse, as every team has them.

The only huge injuries that plague Arsenal at the momeny are van Persie(shocking I know) and Bendtner, unless I'm missing someone. But we have more than enough depth up front to make up for that.

What is plaguing Arsenal is their defending/keeper. Vermaelen is a beast, Koscienly has played very well the past few games after a rough few games to start and Squillaci has played well since his arrival. So I'm hoping that aspect of their game improves with time.
